Edit your user Preferences.sublime-settings so it includes at least the following:

{"rulers":[80],"tab_size":2,"translate_tabs_to_spaces":true}

That’s it. The biggest pain here is that you can’t have per-project package settings. So if you don’t abide by the Closure Linter in all your projects, you have to modify your user SublimeLinter.sublime-settings when changing projects (i.e. setting "sublimelinter": false).
